Default hello from the newbie

Hey my name is Stefan I am an active member of the cbr1100xx.org forum but figured I could meet even more fellow Honda riders here.

I currently ride a 97 BlackBird and just recently bought a 2000 CBR600f4 for track days.
I live in southern New Jersey only 12 miles from NJMP so I am hoping to get out on the track once I get my f4 ready.
I have done 3 track days down at Jennings GP on my Bird but it is my daily rider and I dont want to trash it.
I have been on 2 wheels for almost 30 yrs now I did some Motorcross racing backin the 90's but now I am getting into the road racing . I still love to do sport touring on the Bird though. I average about 8k a yr on the Bird. It is a great bike!!!!

Well the name came about before I got my Bird and I was on an 83 CX650C. So on the XXforum I am SlowrideCX .
I don't claim to be fast but I can hold my own on a track day in the intermidiate group on the Bird.
But I am not fast by any means!!!!

I uploaded some pics of me and my Bird in action on the track and the Bird in street form .
The track day is from Jennings GP in Florida back in March.
I don't have any pics of the f4 on this computer but I will post the only 1 I have from my phone since the e-mail I sent to myself is slower then standard mail today....
